Abstract

In this work, we consider the control problem for a phenomenon modeled by Cellular Automata (CA) through actuators and attributes. To achieve this, we introduce what we called attributes and the adaptation of the definition of actuators to the CA in connection with attributes. The proposed control is then given through the attributes and not directly on the state of the system, as was the case in previous works like for the additive (elementary) CA. To illustrate our approach, we consider the fire forest control problem in the 3D cellular automata.
